Magic reigns, plots abound, and a new love might not conquer all, in this must-read finale to the epic Gargoyle Queen trilogy by international bestselling author Jennifer Estep.
Time is running out for crown princess Gemma Ripley. Despite being a cunning spy and a powerful mind magier, Gemma hasn't been able to track down the most dangerous enemy her kingdom of Andvari has ever seen. Adding to her worries is the Sword and Shield tournament. With gladiators flocking to the capital city of Glanzen, Gemma can't tell who is friend--or foe.
Determined to protect Andvari at any cost, Gemma hatches a bold plan, but things aren't what they seem. Soon, everything she holds dear is being threatened, including her burgeoning relationship with Prince Leonidas Morricone.
With the kingdom she holds dear slipping through her fingers, Gemma will have to conquer her fear and unlock the true secret of her magic--or watch her friends and family die and her beloved Andvari fall . . .
Review:
Conquer The Kingdom’s final book is the Gargoyle Queen Series, where we follow Gemma Ripley in that battle against the Morricone Prince Milo. Along this three-book series, we learn more about Gemma and her magic, we watch her fall in love or admit to being in love with Leo, and we watch as a clever plot by Milo almost destroys her world. I loved this final book so much. Luckily, Milo is an evil creative genius who doesn’t succeed with his crazy plans. Estep crafted some innovative evil plans with Milo as she wrote this book, and I was in awe of how Gemma worked out how to throw them every time. I am sad that, as of now, this Goodbye to Crown of Shards world, I would love to see another spin-off, this time featuring Delimar, as she is the third queen mentioned in the prophecy we find out about in this book. Maybe someday we will get to come back cause I think following a Morricone around for a few books would be a treat.
